Abstrakt: Molecular microbiology assays have a higher cost of testing compared to traditional methods and need to be utilized appropriately. Results from these assays may also require interpretation and appropriate follow-up. Electronic tools available in the electronic health record and laboratory information system can be deployed both preanalytically and postanalytically to influence ordering behaviors and positively impact diagnostic stewardship. Next generation technologies, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, have the potential to expand upon the capabilities currently available and warrant additional study and development but also require regulation around their use in health care.
